-Nuzlocke running - only the first pokemon in each zone

-Speedrunning - ususally, they only use an optimized starter to maximize speed

-Alternate Accounts:

-Roaming Culling - don't encounter set encounters to narrow the roaming pool, increasing the chances of getting good roamings.

-Trading Alts - only use to tradeback mons such as porygon and haunter safely, along with free box storage.

-Battler - you really only need 6 pokemon to run a 3k+ team. I only reached 50 at Port Decca, so I'm a perfect example of a 'Battler.' But I have increased to about 135 since. Some highlights include Shiny Lugia, and Shiny Dusknoir.
